A senior at Radford, majoring in journalism, Jessica Zarebski plans to start her own publishing company within the next five years.

Published correction ran on November 10, 2005:

The popular video production team of "Girls Gone Wild" recently filmed in Radford, courtesy of Radford University’s own Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity.

The single night of filming featured young women willing to “go wild” for a T-shirt and free alcohol.

Historically, the Girls Gone Wild trademarks have been women flashing the camera and “making out” with other girls, and this was no exception.

It was definitely a wild party.

“I think this was another ridiculous way for Radford to get attention and another example of why people don’t really take Radford seriously as an educational institution,” said Shayna Walker, a sophomore at Radford.

Other students don’t see the situation as a big deal.

“It was just a party, a great party,” said Scott Largen, a student at New River Community College.

Of course there has been some concern about the impact this has on Radford University’s reputation.

“This definitely perpetuates the stereotype that Radford is a party school, at a time where we are actively trying to change that perception,” said Heather Evans, Greek Life coordinator at Radford.

“But our main concern is for the safety of the young women that participated as well as the long-term effects they will face.”

Still, the question remains, just how much responsibility can be placed on TKE, which has been a well-respected organization for its community service and social activism.

“I don’t think the situation can be completely blamed on TKE. It was an individual decision on the part of the women who chose to participate,” said Melissa Karns, a senior at Radford.

It is unclear whether disciplinary action will taken against TKE.

The Greek Council and the school administration have taken the matter under advisement.
